GCSE Options Presentation Event 2023

On Monday 30 January 2023 we will be holding a presentation event that explains the GCSE option process to parents and carers of Year 8 students.

This event is designed to give parents and carers the information they need in order to support their children in choosing their GCSE options.

Our students leave Bosworth Academy confident that they can be future leaders, ready to adapt to an ever-changing world and transition into job sectors that don’t even exist yet!

Our GCSE curriculum allows students to choose from a wide range of subjects that they are interested in, but most importantly provides the necessary skills in order to progress onto further study or training.

Whilst all of our subjects allow students to progress onto further study, some A-Level subjects require the subject to have been studied at GCSE level first. Our presentation event aims to give parents and carers the information they need in order to support their children in choosing their GCSE options.

You can learn more by visiting our Key Stage 4 curriculum page: https://www.bosworthacademy.org.uk/curriculum/key-stage-4/

Additional information about the options process will be sent to you soon through our various school communication mediums.

Format of the evening

We will be holding two identical presentations. One at 5:30 and another at 6:15 and you can book your place here. There will be time after each presentation to ask questions about the process. Our SENDCO will also be on hand to answer questions from parents who wish to discuss their child’s specific learning needs. We will attempt to speak to as many parents as possible on the night however, demand to speak to our SENDCO is also high. You might prefer to complete our online form and detail what you would like to discuss, along with some contact details, and we will get in touch with you as soon as possible.
